who will be the guitar player for kiss when they tour with areosmith this summer?

EVH 1979: Well, actually it's not much of a vacation, because we run everything ourselves. We design our own album cover, we have to be in the office every day to sign checks - the whole corporation revolves around us. Nothing can be done without our approval. We even have photo approval.

My guess would be Ace if they can lure him with enough $$, or Tommy Thayer dressed up as Ace. Tommy already did it once at some lame ass Lane Bryant event.... Kiss minus Ace Frehley = one shitty lame ass over the hill washed up trying once again to cash in on their past old fart band!!!

My bad Vinnie....I do believe you are correct! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] I still think Kiss without Ace sucks giant elephant dicks!! And even if they do get ACe back for a couple of gigs...it won't be the same. The spark is lost boys. Weren't they on a farewell tour? Time to hang up the make up, and if Gene and Paul want to still tour....call up Eric and Bruce, and tour without the make up. Do Gene and Paul think that they can continue to wear the make up until they're the Stones age, while getting hired guns to dress up like Ace or peter?

2 bands that just can't seem to get enough money. If Aerosmith would play only their songs from the 70's before they turned into Aeroshit (since this is a 70's show) I might go see this show. But ticket prices will be HIGH.

Yeah, it sucks bigtime that Ace won't be there, as far as for the show in Oz and the Japan tour.

However, there is another show KISS is scheduled to perform that I forgot to mention. The next day after they come back from japan, they are to play in a club in Las Vegas. And yes, again, with Ace imposter Tommy Thayer. Seeing how this gig is small and in a more intimate setting, having Ace not there to Gene and Paul won't be such a big deal.

But if the KISS-Aerosmith tour really does happen, I'm sure Gene and Paul will try the hardest to get Ace back.

Ace has been unhappy with Gene and Paul's ways of handling the band. His complaint was:
-if there were on a Farewell Tour, why are they still playing?
-He always gets contacted (Ace says) on the last minute to play a show or come to a press conference.
-Ace hates the new merchandising (ie:KISS Casket)
and feels he should be consulted whenever something new is put out.

On the flip side Ace has always been prone to be very lazy. He keeps talking about a new solo album he's set to release. Yet, Ace hasn't put any new material out since 1990! (Trouble Walkin') Although he has played mini-tours and gigs here and there before rejoining KISS in 1996.

So there you have it.

I guess its good to see the REAL Catman back, as in Peter Criss instead of Eric Singer in his makeup and costume.

I guess I don't fully understand the differences between everyone in the band. It appears as though Gene and Paul want a bigger piece of the pie than the rest. I am not sure what they are doing to earn that more than Ace and Peter, so I may a bit off here but why not go four ways equally?

Hiring posers to wear the same makeup as the original people they are replacing is flat out a fucking sellout and a slap on the face of their fans.

Gene and Paul own the "kiss" name. When this happened, I'm not exactly sure, but I'm sure it was way back in the day when Ace and Peter were first ousted in the late 70's and early 80's. Kiss is no longer a band. Rather a business. Gene and paul call the shots. And hire whoever is necessary to make themselves more money.
